Jason Craig welcomes his old friend Joseph Pearce. They make the practical case for localism and "small is beautiful" economics, tell the story of a whole community rallying to save its butcher from the regulators, and then turn to the hardest question facing Catholic fathers right now: why are so many good young men being pulled toward online white nationalism, and what do we put in front of them instead?
In This Episode, We Cover:
Why "small is beautiful" isn't romantic nostalgia but a workable answer to big government and globalism, and what Pearce means when he says freedom is in your pocket
What it actually looks like when neighbors organize to defend a local butcher against zoning boards and inspectors, and why real localism means getting your hands dirty
How Pearce left the National Front and hardcore white nationalism behind for the Catholic faith, and why he understands the pull it still has on young men
How the modern fixation on race grew out of the Enlightenment rather than Christianity, and why identitarianism takes root in fatherless, rootless young lives
The remedy Craig and Pearce keep returning to: handing young men the wisdom of the ages and the Church instead of the loud, childless voices online, because the solid Christian family is the hearth of civilization
